Morrissey flittered off stage just two songs into the set of his final show on the UK tour in Liverpool on Sunday after being hit with a plastic beaker of beer.

An audience member hit the diva straight in the face while he was at the front of the stage shaking hands with eager fans. The moment he was hit, Morrissey stood up, wiped his face and declared "Goodbye" before walking off stage.

But, fans should not be alarmed! Even if your punk idol was clocked in the head, ticket holders will receive a full refund for their trouble and diva worshipping!

If you're gonna see a Morrissey show, you know some shiz is gonna go down! Should have known better!

like it or not for someone to throw pee in a bottle at you in a gig in britian is a compliment. the man should know this by now. At T in the Park ( scottish festival) everyone gets bottles thrown at them. Gaga, Black eyes peas, snoop dog etc. it means WOOHOO loving it.
well expect snoop. he got booed the hell out of there for saying HELLO London> thats like me going to new york and saying hello Canada - bad move. .he got all sorts of pee bottles chucked at him that day. and in a vicious way haha

Nanex, I have never known anyone or seen anyone throw bottles of pee at a gig, and I come from the UK… Out of all 20 gigs I have been to, that has never happened… I don't blame the guy for walking off stage.. I would be pretty fucked off if it was me… You very rarely see stories in the press about that happening

all this negative stuff about Morrisey is hardly valid coming from people who read Perez, stand by hacks like Britney Spears and are too immature to recognize a true international music star.

I'm not a huge fan of Morrisey, but am really clear on this…He's a singer and a performer, unlike your britneys with voice effects correcting her bad singing voice. He's a true talent unlike of young hollywood today that are famous solely for having drug addictions.

eeeee wanker, stop giving scousers a bad name.
it happens all the time at the echo, my friend got hit there last winter during a performance. its just part of the atomosphere. a 'punk idol' dont make me laugh.

Oh come on Perez, you are being a bit of a hypocrite here, when Leona was hit you felt sorry for her and when Morrissey was hit you call him a diva. As you say violence is never the answer, if they liked his show they didn't need to throw him a bottle of water in his face even if he was thirsty.

Crowded House got hit by a bottle at Coachella a few years agon by some Rage Against the Machine fan. They took it in good humour and changed the lyrics of the song they were singing to something along the lines of "that bottle didn't put me off…"

I remember your weepy appearance after beeing allegedly punched by Polo Molina and now you dare to call someone who is a real pop icon a diva… Morrissey is a legend with a real magnus opus instead of the queer trash you're constantly promoting (Adam Lambert is ludicrous, Gagas "music" is familiar poprock mainstream, without that costume theater there would be nothing left, it would come close to Shania Twain) Morrissey was absolutely right and has my full support. YOU NOT, PEREZ!

for the record i've been to several morrissey performances over the last 5 years or so and "shiz" has never "gone down". i've also been to many other performances where bands have walked offstage for the very same reason, but nobody says a thing.

Calm down people, Morrissey can in fact be claimed to be 'punk'.
He a) was a a huge fan of punk when he grew up and b) sang in the punk band The Nosebleed for a while. Though, the songs he sings now might not be labelled as punk, they certainly have some influence from it.

Getting assaulted by a sociopathic crowd member warrants a lot harsher than he gave. I don't blame him in the least for walking away. They should sue the wanker who threw the beer, to cover the ticket refunds.
